Temporary absence

On the day of the last filming of Ressha Sentai ToQger, Kosuke broke his thumb in one of his practice. The injury caused him to be decommissioned for two months, with the role as AkaNinger was temporarily given to Yugo Fujii. Eventually, he recovered from his sickness and returned to work, first as HurricaneRed's suit actor and later return as AkaNinger once more. [1]
